The other option is to go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage and see if you can find the app. When you tap on it, you should see how much data is being stored and a button to Delete the app. Below that button it says the app and all of its data will be deleted and it cannot be undone. I honestly don't know any difference from deleting the app here compared to the normal way to delete an app.


If you want to provide the name of the app, I can try and do some more testing on my device. I assume the app does not have a sign in page that would store the data on their servers.

Then your data is likely stored in iCloud. Check in iCloud by going to Settings > [name on top] > iCloud > Manage Account Storage. If you see the app name, then tap on it and choose "Delete Data from iCloud".
